grandmastergm Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 I have European enemies, and I think Red Doom, but not Red Guard. Any group or character that's been reprinted in later editions I'm avoiding though, just trying to find old characters to rebuild for use today. As I recall European Enemies was pretty awful though. The only one that survived from those books was Glacier- the Black Druid is kind of similar to 6e Cairngorm, but they do have different names. The European Enemies book is highly flawed, but has some amusing villains which a GM that I used to play with used in his campaign. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher R Taylor Posted May 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 Recoil the mobster stretching villain. From a mob family three generations in America, he's the most criminal of the Atlas team. He has an interesting mechanic, able to gain greater strength through stretching. Basically he uses his elasticity and leverage to move things heavier and hit harder than he normally could.

He's like the first issue of Superman: he can't fly but he can leap over a tall building and is quite strong and bulletproof. He had lack of weakness, and with Find Weakness removed from the game, I just gave him impenetrable instead, since hardened used to cover that anyway.

Christopher R Taylor Posted May 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 Its a variant anarchy symbol, he's kind of a mixed up individual. He's only a villain because his friends are, really. He is very loyal and protective of them, so the writeup goes. I could easily see him being an obnoxious pest to heroes after meeting them though, and it would be hilarious.

Christopher R Taylor Posted May 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 Unicorn is a naive sort of guy who could be a hero but is so easily manipulated he'd let robbers go because they convinced him they were helping the residents move out of their home. He's the kind of idealist who can be temporarily shown the light of reason, but then soon after is back thinking the same crazy stuff because he prefers reality be that way. His writeup mentions immunity to poison, but he didn't have any powers that reflected this (it makes sense, unicorn horn) so I added that. I shifted his Missile Deflection multipower slot to extra speed to deflect; basically he has speed 12 but 6 of those phases are only to deflect on, so he never has to hold or abort a phase. He also has a strange flash effect that wasn't exactly clear in the writeup, it seems to only go off when he instant changes, but was in the multipower, so I shifted it out and made it no conscious control. Finally he had a susceptibility to Ego Drain but the writeup said if any of his power was drained he took damage, so I made it more general.

SteelCold Posted May 17, 2015 Report Share Posted May 17, 2015 Which version of Deathstroke are you going to do, the one from the old module or from Champions Universe 4th Ed. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wcw43921 Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 There have been Deathstroke conversions for 6th Edition posted already, so perhaps some other characters would be in order. I don't think Alien Enemies has been done--I remember there were some interesting characters in that book. I always liked Doctor Draconis, and would like to see him 'ported over to 6th. You can find him in Champions Universe 4th Edition. The original Deathstroke adventure book also had writeups for Special American Tactics agents--there may be some interested in seeing them in 6th, especially since the writeups could also be used as elite mooks for supervillains. Then there was Doctor Death, a front villain for the Deathstroke team. I always imagined that having gotten a taste of the power and the megalomania, he decided to become a full-fledged supervillain on his own. Hope that helps.

Christopher R Taylor Posted May 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 And, finally, Virtuoso, possibly the most powerful character in the group. His power pool isn't defined very carefully (odd for a Champions character) in terms of special effect, but from the description seems to be a reality manipulation ability. He's strictly support, staying back and assisting others while trying to stay out of combat. This guy would be tough to run as a GM because unlike the comics, PCs tend to zero in on support people who hang back and hammer them first. I added a couple of professional skills (performance art stuff) because he didn't have any; basically he'd suck at his art because it was all academic and theoretical. The power pool suggestions are ones mentioned in the description and a few I figured he'd likely have and use. He didn't have any wealth listed, despite being aristocracy, so I figured either he's from one of those English families that went bankrupt, got kicked out of the family, or spent all his money on lavish living and Atlas, so has no ready cash.

Christopher R Taylor Posted May 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 And now the agents. In the back of the Atlas Unleashed book is a sourcebook with agents, including Super Agents package deals. A bit of a spoiler here, although two agencies are listed, and seem opposed, they're both working for Atlas. Prometheus is their public face, doing basically peace corps and UN sort of work, while the Atlas agents are the bad guy enforcers and spies for the supergroup. To keep the relationship secret, Atlas attacks Prometheus. One of the scenarios in the book unmasks this and gives the PCs a chance to set things right. First up, the Atlas agents. They come in three flavors with different point values and equipment. Enforcers are the strike team and combat front lines. Covert are spies, and covert assault handles special forces kind of work. They have some interesting equipment including a TK lifter beam and a long range teleportation device that they have access to, but are not part of the basic agent's abilities.

wcw43921 Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 Death Commando made it into 4th Edition Champions Universe (ppg. 109-110); I have no idea what happened to him in the transition from 4th to 5th Edition. Of course, with Mechassassin, Steel Commando, Devastator, Lazer, Cyclone, and the Warlord running around--to name but a very few--it becomes quite obvious that there is no shortage of super-armed and super-armored mercenaries running around the Champions Universe, no matter what edition you choose.

assault Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 I prefer SAT to PRIMUS. I once worked out a timeline based on the 1e rule book and the first three adventures. UNTIL had been invited into the US to help defeat Mechanon's nearly successful attempt to topple the US government. SAT was being rolled out as a replacement for them, to get the dirty foreigners off US soil. (Almost all of the UNTIL personnel in the US were from the US anyway. but demogogues don't care about details). UNTIL and VIPER were my own versions, not the ones that appeared in VIPER's NEST and subsequent products. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher R Taylor Posted May 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 The SAT uniforms are even more hideous when colored. To the point I think the designer was deliberately trying to humiliate the team. The idea of the SAT appeals to me. I would make them less a jingoistic pack of jerks and more just a US-only team that does what UNTIL does, depending on the current administration.
